Overview

‘RuboCop::Node` is a subclass of `Parser::AST::Node`. It provides access to parent nodes and an object-oriented way to traverse an AST with the power of `Enumerable`.

It has predicate methods for every node type, like this:

Examples:

node.send_type?    # Equivalent to: `node.type == :send`
node.op_asgn_type? # Equivalent to: `node.type == :op_asgn`

# Non-word characters (other than a-zA-Z0-9_) in type names are omitted.
node.defined_type? # Equivalent to: `node.type == :defined?`

# Find the first lvar node under the receiver node.
lvar_node = node.each_descendant.find(&:lvar_type?)

    Yield all nodes.

  • #each_node(type) ⇒ self, Enumerator

    Yield only nodes matching the type.

    Parameters:

    • type (Symbol)

      a node type

  • #each_node(type_a, type_b, ...) ⇒ self, Enumerator

    Yield only nodes matching any of the types.

    Parameters:

    • type_a (Symbol)

      a node type

    • type_b (Symbol)

#updated(type = nil, children = nil, properties = {}) ⇒ Object

Override ‘AST::Node#updated` so that `AST::Processor` does not try to mutate our ASTs. Since we keep references from children to parents and not just the other way around, we cannot update an AST and share identical subtrees. Rather, the entire AST must be copied any time any part of it is changed.

#value_used?Boolean

Some expressions are evaluated for their value, some for their side effects, and some for both If we know that an expression is useful only for its side effects, that means we can transform it in ways which preserve the side effects, but change the return value So, does the return value of this node matter? If we changed it to ‘(…; nil)`, might that affect anything?
